Introduction

Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) primarily affects the axial skeleton, but its association with hip osteoarthritis (OA) remains unclear. We investigated the prevalence and 5 year progression of hip OA in individuals with DISH and explored risk factors for progression.

Materials and methods

This retrospective cohort study reviewed 694 asymptomatic individuals who underwent whole-body computed tomography (CT) for cancer screening (2016–2023) and had follow-up CT at ≥ 5 years. DISH was diagnosed using CT-based criteria. We identified 143 individuals with DISH and selected 143 age- and sex-matched controls without DISH (1:1). Hip OA was assessed using a CT-based composite score (0–14, bilateral). Radiographic hip OA was defined as a bilateral score ≥ 10, and progression as an increase of ≥ 2 points over 5 years. Multivariable regression analyses were performed to identify independent predictors of progression.

Results

The DISH group had higher total hip OA scores and a higher prevalence of radiographic hip OA than controls at baseline and follow-up. However, OA progression rates did not differ significantly between groups. Among individuals with DISH, the number of ankylosed vertebral segments was independently associated with hip OA progression.

Conclusion

Individuals with DISH show a higher prevalence of radiographic hip OA. Extensive spinal ankylosis may increase the risk of hip OA progression, supporting the need for longitudinal monitoring of hip joint health in DISH.
